ANECDOTE

Soldier Enters Samadhi State

  • Ram Dass recounts soldiers visiting Maharaj and one soldier entering Samadhi, a trance-like state where he becomes completely still.
  • Maharaj demonstrates extraordinary control by causing a man to become rigid and unresponsive, illustrating deep spiritual power.
INSIGHT

Mind as Servant, Not Master

  • You are not your rational mind, but the rational mind is like a coachman driving a carriage of desires and ego.
  • True self-awareness is recognizing the mind as a servant rather than the master of your being.
INSIGHT

Living Outside Time and Space

  • To live outside of time is like seeing a pen passing through a piece of paper from all dimensions at once.
  • A guru perceives past, present, and future simultaneously, beyond ordinary three-dimensional perception.
